Dubai: the land of deserts, camels and thawbs... and five star hotels, fast cars, fancy discotheques and shopping, shopping and even more shopping. The oasis of Dubai has come a long way from what it was when it began, as a humble industrial township to the fastest expanding city in the world. It is the heart of the Middle East, and the fine line where East becomes indistinguishable from West. Dubai tours are immensely popular, and all tour packages to the Gulf cover Dubai. Here’s why:

1) The tourism infrastructure
As a tourist, you might face issues in any other part of the world, but not in Dubai. Foreseeing the depletion of their precious oil reserves, authorities in Dubai have been prompt to make tourism the new selling point of their economy. The resulting developments include one of the best support systems for tourists ever. In a fix? You’re never more than a phone call away from help!

2) Al Karama
If you’ve got a passion for shopping, and bargaining too, then ditch the swanky malls and head to Al Karama. One of the cheaper shopping districts in Dubai, Al Karama offers you anything and ...
... everything that can be bought. And the prices are all negotiable, too, so practice those bargaining skills before getting on that plane.

3) Desert sports
We’ve all heard of snowboarding, yes? But now you can go sand-boarding far out in the dunes without worrying about catching a cold. And if you’re reluctant to get some sand between your toes, drive a dune buggy instead. It’s like a roller coaster, only you’re the one driving. Don’t worry though, Dubai’s desert slopes might look steep, but they’re harmless, really.

4) Dhow cruises
Explore the coast of Dubai by night with a dhow cruise down Dubai creek. Famous landmarks include the Dubai Chamber of Commerce, Sheikh Saeed’s palatial home and the Heritage Village. Complete with food, drink and music, a cruise like this might just be one of the most romantic experiences of your life. Take your better half!

If there’s one thing no one should do about Dubai’s meteoric rise to fame, then that is to be sceptical about it. The headlines and staggering figures are all true, and Dubai really does intend to gain about 82 billion USD annually by 2020, just from tourism! Book your travel packages and Dubai tours today to see it for yourself.
